On behalf of the National Party I send my best wishes to everyone within the Sri Lankan community in New Zealand.
I greatly appreciate the role you play in our vibrant Sri Lankan community, and you bring a rich culture and heritage to New Zealand.
The National Party respects and admires the work, diversity and culture that you bring to New Zealand.
The amount of Sri Lankans who are deciding to call New Zealand their home is continuing to increase. You enrich our communities and bring valuable skills that benefit our health sector, engineering sector and many more.
We welcome you with open arms.
We have a long shared history and culture, whether it’s through our shared love of cricket or the many Sri Lankans who have made New Zealand their home since the 1890’s. I look forward to this relationship continuing to grow.
Simon Bridges
National Party Leader
